FTA: The police do not know how the arsonists managed to set fire to the goat, as the fire brigade had hosed it down earlier in the evening and it would have frozen almost instantly.

Ummm.... a propane torch would melt through the ice, dry it out, and start a fire quicker than you can say "bob's your uncle." Spray some starter fluid to get it going good, and it'll start sustaining itself.

2010. I'm meeting with a client regarding his lawsuit. This particular client is living in a homeless shelter and was hit by a car while on his bicycle. We are going over Interrogatories and I asked him about his criminal history for the last ten years. He reluctantly told me how he had been convicted for burning a straw goat in another country. Being an avid BockenCam watcher and follower, I immediately asked him about the Gavle goat. Sure enough, it was him. I have the autograph of Lawrence "Larry" Jones, Bocken Burner 2001. \O/
